To add a small point to what Andy already pointed out, 4.4.0-145 was released on 2019-03-26. The VirtualBox version that you're testing with (6.0.4) was released on 2019-01-28. Do you see why there might be a problem? Do you realize that 2 months is a lot in this type of "business"?BP LIS wrote:a major screw up by Oracle in upgrading the VB to a version that has become TOTALLY incompatible to Ubuntu-Linux.
...plus some more unfounded guesswork...
If you want to use the latest version for your host/guests, you should also be doing the same for VirtualBox. You should be trying the latest test builds. Plus, you still have to give some time for the VirtualBox developers to do some catching up. And please hold your judgement until you've done your testing and they've done their updates...
Will you give it a rest please?zimbodel wrote:as threads have been merged
It was best in my opinion that the threads got merged, since they were all referring to the same underlying reason, with the same symptoms.
In my first reply to you, I specifically said:
Note that I avoided giving specific commands, just because it sometimes can be convoluted, and you have to find the correct commands/sequence/order for *your* system. We're not sitting in front of your computer, you are.socratis wrote:You need to clean your system from all-things-VirtualBox, except your personal files, config and VMs that is. Don't worry, uninstalling VirtualBox will *not* affect your VMs. Then install the official version from the Linux Downloads section of VirtualBox.
Glad that 2 out of 3 reporters got it working (or should have it working if they follow the instructions given). Now the only thing remaining is to hear back from "PeterCardiff". But since the OP of this thread managed to get it going, I'm going to mark this as [Resolved].
